Overview and Mission
The Division of Quantitative and Clinical Sciences within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is dedicated to advancing women's health through rigorous, data-driven research and interdisciplinary collaboration.
Our mission is to integrate quantitative methodologies—including biostatistics, epidemiology, data science, and clinical informatics—with clinical expertise to generate insights that improve patient care, inform policy, and drive innovation in reproductive and maternal health. We foster a collaborative environment that supports translational research and mentorship, and the development of future leaders in clinical and population health sciences.
